Welcome to l'Amirauté sur Baïse

Nestled in the rolling Gers countryside, in the charming village of Saint-Jean-Poutge, lies l'Amirauté sur Baïse – an idyllic guest house and gîte where tranquility, nature, and hospitality converge. We are proud and enthusiastic to introduce ourselves: Ibo Vroom and Marlies van Heymbeeck are the recent new owners of this enchanting spot in southwest France.

After years of dreaming of a life closer to nature, we decided to change course and transform our passion for the good life, hospitality, and authentic experiences into a new adventure. We're taking over from the previous owners with open arms, preserving everything that makes this place so special—and bringing fresh energy and new ideas.

Whether you're looking for a relaxing stay in a charming room, a longer holiday in our comfortable gîte, or simply want to enjoy the beautiful scenery, local culture, and a warm welcome: L'Amirauté sur Baïse is the perfect place for you.

We look forward to welcoming you, inspiring you and making you feel at home in our little piece of paradise in the Gers.

Enjoy peace and charm in the Gers: welcome to l'Amirauté sur Baïse

Welcome to l'Amirauté sur Baïse - come home to the tranquility of the Gers

In picturesque Saint-Jean-Poutge, nestled among the gently rolling hills of the Gers, we – Ibo and Marlies – run our guest house, l'Amirauté sur Baïse, with great love and attention. What makes our place special is not just the tranquility and beauty of the surroundings or the stylish character of our house, but above all, the way we approach hosting: personal, warm, and with an eye for detail.

Who we are

Before realizing our dream in southwest France, we worked for years in the Dutch business world. Ibo completed secondary school in tourism and recreation in Groningen. He then moved to Breda to pursue a higher professional education (HBO) degree in Recreation Business Management. During his studies, he worked at various hospitality companies in Breda, and afterward, he started working at a five-star hotel in Eindhoven. He then spent several years in a management position at a holiday park in the hospitality sector. Ultimately, he continued his career in commercial B2B, where he worked for many years as a successful (key) account manager. But the desire to start his own business in hospitality and residential recreation remained, and now he can finally put his acquired knowledge and experience into practice to make his guests feel completely at home.

When Belgian Marlies met Ibo, it was quickly clear that their love for each other was strong, but so was the travel distance. After just seven months, she left her job as a sports journalist at 'Het Laatste Nieuws' and emigrated to the Netherlands to live and work with Ibo in Breda. In the following years, Marlies worked very successfully as a recruiter for clients in the Eindhoven and Amsterdam areas. A few years ago, her work in the HR sector expanded as a consultant, where she again worked very successfully for various clients in Southeast Brabant. Marlies has a strong focus on people, connection, and personal attention – qualities that are proving useful again now.

Because our friends and family come from far and wide, it's become almost natural for us over the past 25 years to have everyone stay overnight when they visit. We were happy to ensure everything was perfect, so our loved ones had a wonderful time with us, enjoying a delicious dinner in the evening, the best drinks, comfortable beds, a private guest bathroom, and a hearty breakfast in the morning. So, we've essentially been running a mini-B&B for 25 years! But now we're taking things a step further. We're bringing our work and life experiences into our daily work as hosts. Our guests should want for nothing. That's our top priority!
